By Brian Cimmet

Suspects are lying. Alibis don't add up. The evidence is all here--can you crack the case? Cracked: True Crime Logic Puzzles puts you in the detective's chair with 75+ original case files designed for one thing: the pure, satisfying challenge of solving crimes with logic alone. No gore. No guesswork. Just you, the clues, and the truth waiting to be uncovered.

Every case follows the same rule: the answer is on the page--you just have to find it.

Examine the evidence. Cross-reference the alibis. Spot the contradiction that breaks the case wide open. Cracked: True Crime Logic Puzzles drops you into 75+ original mysteries--locked rooms, conflicting timelines, coded messages, suspicious receipts--and gives you everything you need to solve them: numbered exhibits, witness statements, and logic grids designed for clean, objective deduction.

Start with Rookie cases to learn the ropes, then work your way up to Detective and Cold Case files as the challenges sharpen and the alibis get slipperier. Each solve builds your skills. Each case builds your confidence.
